Lyrics
Oh, Lazarus
Tell me 'bout the deep, dark sleep
Does it come quick and kind?
Do you feel it creep?
Oh, do you feel it creep?
And oh, Lazarus
Tell me, does the price get paid?
Weigh your heart 'gainst a feather
Can you make the trade?
Oh, can you make the trade?
Between the fire and the sky (Fire and the sky)
On the edge of a knife (On the edge of a knife)
Of all the alters that you kept sweet (Kept sweet)
Words that made your knees weak (Knees weak)
Was it what you wanted when it's said and done? (Said and done)
All your diviners and your saints (And your saints)
Could they ever change your fate (Change your fate)
When the old gods call you home? (Gods call you home)
Oh, Lazarus
Tell me, do the secrets keep?
The ones you took to the grave
Do they get set free?
Oh, do they get set free?
And oh, Lazarus
Tell me, when the bright light fades
Do you fear what you see?
Can you speak its name?
Oh, can you speak its name?
Between the fire and the sky (Fire and the sky)
On the edge of a knife (On the edge of a knife)
Of all the alters that you kept sweet (Kept sweet)
Words that made your knees weak (Knees weak)
Was it what you wanted when it's said and done? (Said and done)
All your diviners and your saints (And your saints)
Could they ever change your fate (Change your fate)
When the old gods call you home? (Gods call you home)
Now you shoulder the load that you weren't meant to carry
You speak of the things that the tongue cannot say
Now you glimpse of things that belong to the buried
Are you longing now to return to the clay?
Of all the alters that you kept sweet (Kept sweet)
Words that made your knees weak (Knees weak)
Was it what you wanted when it's said and done? (Said and done)
All your diviners and your saints (And your saints)
Could they ever change your fate (Change your fate)
When the old gods call you home? (Gods call you home)
When the old gods call you home?
Oh, Lazarus
Tell me, when you caught that breath
Was it joy, was it fear
Pounding in your chest?
Oh, do you dare confess?
